## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely
*by H***R on 10 January 2025*

I'm new to model building and not sure how long I will be into it.This is the 3rd pair I've had. 1st I had for something else 2nd not good. 3rd well.... brilliant the cut so nicely. Cut not clamp. The are small and nice and pointy which helps with the daft small bits.They are nice to holdThe price was ok.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Precision that puts many of the others to shame
*by J***O on 30 March 2024*

I've recently bought several pairs of flush cutters similar to this so that I can compare them all and send back all but the best pair for a refund. I'm an electronics hobbyist.I didn't actually know that side cutters for Airfix models were a thing. So I bought these expecting them perhaps to be made from flimsy steel or to have some other obvious design characteristic which made them unsuitable for cutting copper wire. But I really can't see any reason why they should not survive a long time cutting copper. The blades are hard, the copper is soft: what am I missing?The product description is very clear that you shouldn't cut metal with them, and restates this several times but I think they are going to be ideal and it's a risk I'm prepared to take as their precision and manufacturing tolerance appears to be significantly better than the other brands I've been looking at such as Wiha, Knipex, Klein.Most of the cutters I bought for this test have issues with the cutting edges overlapping rather than meeting precisely along their edges. These do not: they are absolutely precisely lined up, and there is only a tiny, almost imperceptible, amount of wobble in the pivot.Furthermore these are the only pair of off the 7 or so which have an adjustment screw for limiting the jaw closure -- so you can set the edges to touch as closely as you wish. This is a great feature and gives you confidence that you're not going to apply pressure that may damage the edges, as in the case of some models which are set during manufacturing to close too much and hence this causes them to bypass each other and become badly unaligned.So in summary then, these are amazingly sharp, precise, and a joy to use. I'll update if I have anything new to report after using them for a while.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but…
*by K***N on 29 March 2024*

It cuts through sprue great, a vast improvement over cheap ones you can get anywhere.But the spring feels very soft. Hard to explain but it just feels too soft on the spring making it feel almost cheap, not sure on the longevity on it because of this
